The ever-dedicated Shiba Inu community has succeeded in removing more SHIB from circulation, as it burns almost 75 million tokens. According to data shared by the Shiba Inu burn tracker, Shibburn, over the last 24 hours, the SHIB Army has destroyed another lump of the memecoin.
The increase in the burn rate can be attributed to the rising usage of Shibarium – the Shiba Inu layer 2 blockchain solution, which has been recording impressive growth since its relaunch.

Shibarium is close to achieving a new milestone
Meanwhile, the layer 2 blockchain solution, Shibarium is seen to be approaching a new milestone as its total transaction approaches 3,000,000 (3 million), according to data from Shibariumscan.
Per the data, the exact total number of transactions on the network is 2,910,761 (2,9 million). Also, the total number of wallet addresses on Shibarium stands at 1,246,670 (1.2 million) with 712, 492 total blocks mined.
However, the total daily transaction has significantly dropped from its last peak of 200.88k on September 13 to 42.83k at press time.
In the meantime, Shiba Inu’s marketing strategist, Lucie continues to encourage the public to migrate to Shibarium and actively use the network as a rise in Shibarium traffic will be good for SHIB burns.
She reiterated that a successful large amount of SHIB burns can only be done through transactions and not by tweets about burns. She concluded by saying for burns to be initiated, the community needs to actively use Shibarium.
